Cold light radiation, a means for measuring the intensity of one of an unpatterned projection beam and a patterned projection beam in the part from the detected cold light radiation. [Prior art] "Pattering means" described in this specification should be broadly interpreted as meaning that it can be used to make-human light beams have-conform to _ want to be produced-the pattern in the target portion of the substrate A member of the cross section of the pattern; for this purpose, "light valve" can be used. In general, the pattern will correspond to the specific functional layer of the device to be produced in the target part, such as an integrated circuit or other device (see below). The solidity of these pattern-forming members is well known, and includes, for example, binary, alternating phase shift, and attenuation phase shift masks, as well as 87659 200419313 hybrid masks. Placing this photomask into a radiation beam causes the radiation hitting the photomask to be selectively transmitted according to the pattern on the photomask (the photomask is a transmissive photomask) or reflected (the photomask is a In the case of a reflective mask, in the case of having a mask, the supporting structure will be a mask stage, which ensures that the mask can be maintained in a desired position within the incident radiation beam, and it is necessary to Beam movement.-A programmable mirror array. An example of this device is a matrix addressable surface with a viscoelastic control layer and a reflective layer. The basic principle behind this device (for example) is that The addressed area of the reflective surface reflects incident light as diffracted light, while the unaddressed area reflects incident light as undiffracted light. With an appropriate filter, the undiffracted light can be filtered away from the reflected beam, leaving only the diffracted light In this way, the beam becomes patterned according to the addressing pattern of the matrix-addressable surface. An alternative embodiment of a programmable mirror array may use a matrix of small mirror arrays, each small mirror obtained By applying an appropriate local electric field or by using a piezoelectrically actuated member, they are individually tilted about an axis. Again, these mirrors are matrix addressable, so that the addressed mirrors will be different from the unaddressed ones The direction of the mirror reflects an incident radiation beam; in this way, the reflected beam becomes patterned in accordance with the addressing patterns of the matrix-addressable mirrors. The required matrix addressing operation must be performed using appropriate electronic components. In this case, the pattern-forming member may include one or more programmable mirror arrays. Further examples of mirror arrays described herein can be found in US Patent Nos. 5,296,89 1 and 5,523,193 And PCT patent applications WO 98/38597 and WO 98/33096, which are incorporated herein by reference. In the case of a programmable mirror array = 87659 200419313, the The support structure can be implemented as a frame or a table, for example, which can be fixed or movable as required.-A programmable LCD array. An example of this structure is found in US Patent No. 5,229,872 The case is incorporated herein by reference. As mentioned above, the supporting structure in this case can be implemented as a frame or a table, for example, which can be fixed or movable as needed. For simplicity, this description Other parts may clearly point to examples involving a reticle and reticle in some places; however, the general principles discussed in these cases should focus on the broader implications of pattern-forming members as described above. The device can be used, for example, in the manufacture of integrated circuits (ICs). In this case, the pattern-forming member can generate a circuit pattern equivalent to a separate layer of the integrated circuit, and this pattern can be reflected on a substrate ( Silicon wafer) has been coated with a layer of radiation-sensitive material (resist) on a target portion (for example, including one or more dies). In general, a single wafer will contain projection lines one after the other A complete network of irradiated adjacent target parts. In Dang 7 clothes, the criminal used a mask on the mask table to form a pattern to distinguish between two different types of machines. In a type of lithography device, each eye catching part is shot by exposing the entire photomask pattern to the target part in a single stroke and then rotating. This device is often called a wafer stepper (wafer 'M0). In another type of device, generally called a step-and-scan device, each target is swept through the light by a given reference universal (knowing direction) under the projected beam. The mask pattern is simultaneously irradiated by sweeping the substrate in a parallel or parallel direction in the directions of 10,000 and 4; because of the general stone, the projection system will have a magnification factor M (usually M < 1), the sweep of the substrate table 87659 200419313 The second degree is M times the scanning speed of the photomask table. More about the lithography shell described herein can be known, for example, from US Patent No. 6,046,792, which is incorporated herein by reference. Yu, Kou, " In the manufacturing process of the use-lithography device, a pattern (for example, a: mask: figure) is reflected on a substrate at least partially covered by a layer of radiation sensitive material (resist). Before this mapping step, the substrate may undergo various Treatments, such as primer (pHming), anti-rust coating and -soft baking operations. The substrate may be subjected to other treatments after exposure, such as post-exposure baking), like hard baking and pattern measurement / inspection after imaging. The private parts of this series serve as the basis for patterning an independent layer of a device (such as an integrated circuit). Then these patterned layers may undergo various processes, such as etching, ion implantation (doping), metal All processes, such as chemical treatment, oxidation treatment, chemical mechanical polishing, etc., need to be ground away. If several layers are required, the entire process or its variation must be repeated for each new layer. Finally, the substrate (crystal) Appear on the series of components. Then separate these pieces by cutting or recording.

For the sake of intervening, the projection system may be referred to as "lens" in the following; however, the term should be interpreted broadly to include various types of projection systems, including, for example, refractive optics: reflective optics and refractive inversion systems. Pure systems can also include components or optical elements based on any design type such as pointing, modeling, or controlling a radiation projection beam, and these components are hereinafter referred to as "lens." In addition, Ikiki or early substrate stage (and / or two or more photomasks: two, four, two or more u Youzhuo) 爻 type. In this "Duoping two," strike :: Out: The stations can be used in parallel, or can be accessed in one or more; the same as 3. Preparatory steps on one or more other stations. For example, see US patent m Π Q /; n ten. Sincerely installed Wu Guo patent brother No. 5,969,441 and international premium coffee number, these patent cases are cited by way of and specifically = = resist can receive the correct exposure dose, the radiation beam on the substrate plane during the period of interest Strength is important. Unfortunately, without changing the intensity or changing the intensity distribution (uniformity), the intensity measurement during exposure is extremely difficult to perform. In lithographic devices known by m, a combination of sensors is usually used to reduce disturbances-a first sensor is suspended and attached to a substrate stage so that it can be positioned in a beam for measurement between exposures, and n The reactor is positioned at an appropriate position in the optical circuit, such as' women's clothing on a part of a reflector, to measure the intensity of the beam # 彳 乂 during exposure. The first sensor between exposures is used The extremely accurate measurement of the intensity of the traveling beam and the distribution of the intensity of the beam can be made, and the characteristics of the device can be analyzed by the relative and measured by different sensors under different conditions. Then you can use this data and only use The value of the second induction button is used to predict the intensity on the plane of the substrate. The disadvantage of this method is that there is always a disturbance in the intensity by the presence of a sensor. Or one of the devices is in the device. The reflector may be partially silver plated so that a part of the incident light can pass through the reflector to a sensor behind the reflector, or a part of the light beam can be redirected to an induction 87659 200419 313. This configuration will basically reduce the intensity of the projection beam, which will lead to the yield of the device. Devices using EUV radiation are particularly sensitive to this problem, because EUV reflectors are extremely inefficient in their characteristics. For EUV radiation Highly reflective mirrors are not yet available. Furthermore, in lithographic projection devices using EUV radiation, the projection beam is irradiated in a vacuum system to prevent loss of intensity. Therefore, the beam intensity sensor must also be Positioned in the vacuum pumping system, it must be designed to be compatible with the vacuum environment and not vent when placed in a vacuum. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a method for measuring the projection beam. Intensity component, which can determine the intensity of the beam through its cross-sectional area and is compatible with the υυν device. _ This and other purposes can be achieved in accordance with the lithography device detailed in the previous paragraph, which is characterized by: -The sensor detects the cold light radiation from a plurality of locations in the area of the element to which the beam is incident from the unillustrated projection beam and the patterned projection beam; And the component for measuring the intensity of the beam is to measure the intensity of one of the unpatterned projection beam and the patterned projection beam in each part. In one of the unpatterned projection beam and the patterned projection beam, Among them, the intensity at this part can be determined by the detected cold light radiation. Cold light:-Spontaneous emission generated by thermally excited substances. Two different types of faces and the general public ... can be generated according to Recognized by the mechanism of the thermally excited state: for example, 'chilling first (excitation state produced by absorption of photons), radiant cold light 87659 -10-200419313 (privately excited by high energy particles or light emission)> 1 foot for π excitation Cold light), sonar cold light (cold light excited by sound waves), friction cold light (cold light generated by rubbing specific solids together), and chemical cold light (cold light generated by a chemical reaction). In addition, 'cold light' can also be identified by the relationship between excitation and emission, such as fluorescent light (the phosphorescent phosphorescence that occurs only during the excitation of matter (luminous light generated or sustained after the excitation of matter). The degree of cold light produced by the device's components upon the incidence of the projected beam (presumably the magic system created by the incident light beam's transformation of atoms in the surface can be measured by a number of factors, including the characteristics of the incident energy beam ( For example, the photon ilb and wavelength) and the characteristics of the element (such as the material used). The distribution of the light emitted by the 10,000 / T light is usually arbitrary. Therefore, the sensor does not need to be located on the M path. Therefore, Han The beam will not be changed due to the presence of the sensor. In this way, the WM ^ ^ and ^ sensors can be used to detect the radiation beam in the beam (the intensity of the entire cross-section and the intensity of the split and the beam The overall intensity. For example, the component that detects light emission in cold light can be a multilayer stack that forms a distributed Bragg reflection state or a known grazing incidence concentrator. In particular, the component can be a division of a projection system. And / or the part of the illumination system and / or the first reflector on which the unillustrated beam can be incident. The element can be part of the illuminator in particular. It should be in a broad spectrum Detect the combined intensity of cold light radiation 'or to more accurately determine the intensity of the radiation beam, the sensor can detect one or more expected wavelengths corresponding to the radiation to be emitted (the state of the atom in the reflection due to the radiation beam) Caused by the change in the intensity of the cold light beam in the narrow band 87659 200419313. Since the projection beam is EUV radiation, at least a part of the pattern forming member, the projection system substrate, and the radiation system is contained in a vacuum chamber. In order to reduce the loss of beam intensity due to the absorption of ElJV radiation. However, the 々, 4¾ radiation can be said to be at different wavelengths, for example, in the visible range, it will not be absorbed to a certain extent like EUV. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment, the sensor can be positioned outside the vacuum chamber. In this way, the sensor does not need to be vacuum compatible. However, all can detect cold light radiation The measured unpatterned projection beam or patterned shadow beam &lt; the intensity of the Shao bit 'can be used to adjust the intensity of the light beam generated by the target system when the target portion of the substrate is exposed, or to adjust the projection beam According to another aspect of the present invention, a component manufacturing method is provided, which includes the following steps:-providing a substrate, the substrate is at least partially covered by a radiation-sensitive material layer;-using an irradiation system to Providing a radiation projection beam;-using a pattern forming member to make the projection beam have a pattern on its cross-section;-projecting a patterned radiation beam onto a target portion of the radiation-sensitive material layer,-using a sensor To detect cold light radiation from at least a part of an area on an element of a device traversed by one of the unpatterned projection beam and the patterned projection beam, 87659 -12-200419313-for self-detection The measured cold light radiation is used to determine the intensity of one of the unpatterned projection-shadow beam and the patterned projection beam in the part, which is characterized by: The cold light radiation is detected in a plurality of parts of the area where the projection beam and the patterned projection beam are incident to one of the elements-to determine the unpatterned projection beam and the patterned projection beam in each of the parts One of them projects the intensity of the beam. Although in this specification reference may be made in particular to the use of the device according to the invention in the manufacture of integrated circuits, it should be understood that this device has many other possible applications. For example, it can be used in the manufacture of integrated optical systems, magnetic field recording and detection graphics, liquid crystal display panels, and thin-film magnetic heads. Those skilled in the art will understand that the use of the terms "rectile", "wafer" or "die" in this specification in the description of these possible applications should be used It is considered to be replaced by the more general terms "mask (masl <),", "substrate", and "target portin", respectively. In this specification, the word "light "Radiation" and "beam plus radiation", the term covers all types of electromagnetic radiation, including ultraviolet radiation (such as radiation with a wavelength of 365, 248, 193, 157, or 126 nm) and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation (For example, the wavelength is within 5-20 nanometers, and particle beams, such as ion beams or electron beams. Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. [Embodiment] 贵 实施 例 1 87659 200419313 Fig. 1 schematically illustrates a lithographic projection device according to a specific embodiment of the present invention. The device includes:-an illumination system Ex, IL, which is used to supply a projection radiation beam PB (such as EUV radiation). Example also includes a radiation source la -A first object stage (mask stage) MT, which is provided with a mask holder for supporting a mask MA (such as a king mask), and is connected to make the mask accurate relative to the unit PL A first positioning member pM for positioning;-a second object table (substrate table) WT, which is provided with a substrate holder for supporting a substrate (such as a Shixi wafer to a cloth resist agent), and is connected to the substrate; The second positioning member pw for precisely positioning the substrate relative to the unit PL; and then to the system ("lens") PL (for example, a group of mirrors), which is used to separate one of the two photomasks M A without illumination. It is reflected on a target part of the substrate w (for example, including one or more dies). The device described here is a reflective device (for example, a reflective mask). However, as a whole, for example, It can also be a transmissive device (equipped with a transmissive mask). Alternatively, the device can use other types of patterning members, such as one of the programmable mirror array types mentioned above. The light source LA (such as a laser Generating source or plasma source) generates a radiation beam which is directly After having traversed the adjustment member (such as a beam expander Εχ), it is sent to an illumination system (illuminator) IL. The illuminator IL may include an outer radial range and / or an inner radial range for setting the intensity distribution within the beam. (Usually referred to as outer σ and inner σ, respectively). In addition, it usually includes various other components, such as an integrator and a condenser c0. In this way, the light beam irradiated onto the mask MA pb has the required uniformity and intensity distribution in its cross section 87659 -14-200419313. As shown in Figure 1, it should be noted that the light source LA may be in the housing of the lithographic projection device (for example, as is common The light source LA is an example of a mercury lamp), but it can also be far away from the lithographic device, and the light beam generated by it is guided into the device (for example by means of a suitable pointing mirror); the latter case is usually This is the case when the light source LA is a laser. The scope of the present invention and patent application covers both architectures. The light beam PB then meets the mask MA, which is supported on a mask table Mτ. The light beam PB is selectively reflected by the mask MA and passes through the projection system pL, which focuses the light beam PB on the target portion c of the substrate w. With the assistance of the second positioning member (and the interferometry member IF), the substrate table WT can be accurately moved, for example, thereby positioning the different target portions c in the path of the beam four. Similarly, the first foot position member can, for example, accurately position the path of the mask MA relative to the beam chirp after the mask MA is mechanically retracted from a mask library or during a scan. In general, the movement of the object table can be assisted by long stroke mode and (rough position) and a short stroke module C fine positioning). This is not detailed in the drawing. 'Just out. However, in a wafer stepper (as opposed to a step-scanning device) example, the reticle stage Mτ may be connected to only a short-stroke actuator, or it may be fixed. The device can be used in two different modes: Less, 'In the mode, the mask stage MTS is held essentially still, and the entire mask image is projected once (ie, A q' human flash ') on a target portion C on. Then the substrate edge WT is shifted by X and / $ v, or universally so that a different target portion C can be irradiated by the beam PB; ϋ 87659 15 200419313 2. In the scanning mode, the same scheme is essentially used, the difference is that The target portion C is not a single "flash, exposure. Instead, the mask stage mt can be moved in a given direction (known as the" scanning direction ", such as the Y direction) at a speed V, so that the projection beam PB passes over A mask image; at the same time, the substrate table WT moves simultaneously at the same or opposite direction at a speed v = Mv, where M is the magnification of the lens PL (usually M = 1/4 or 1/5). The larger target portion c can be exposed without sacrificing resolution. Figure 2 depicts an embodiment of the present invention. A radiation beam 2 crosses a reflector 3. This round of knowledge will cause the atoms 3a of the surface 3a to be reflected. The electrons in it move to a higher energy state. When the electrons return to a lower energy level, the atoms will radiate cold light. The wavelength of the cold light radiation depends on the amount of energy released when the electrons fall to a lower energy level. Value. Therefore, when the radiation beam is incident on the reflection The cold light radiation emitted by the reflector when it is on the reflector is composed of radiation in a plurality of discontinuous wavelength bands. The intensity of the cold light radiation in each band and the position of the band are determined by the material and the incident beam from which the reflector is made The intensity of cold light is all-round irradiation. Therefore, an sensor 4 can be set at a position where the cold light radiation can be detected from the surface 3a, instead of being set on the incident path 2a of the radiation beam 2 or On the reflection path 2b. The sensor 4 can be a CCD camera or a single diode. The sensor 4 can detect the cold light radiation 5 from the surface 3a of the reflector 3 on which the radiation beam 2 is incident. Or, by The image of the area 3a of the wheel beam 2 incident on the reflector 3 can be projected on the sensor 4 by using appropriate optical means, such as a lens 6 '. Then, the sensor 4 can be used to monitor the entire cross section of the radiation beam Intensity. This is quite useful, because for example, in a projected beam 87659 -16- 200419313, we want to be able to ensure that the beam intensity is uniform across its cross section. Regardless of whether the sensor is incident from the radiation beam 2 Upper reflector The whole area is 3 a or self-reflection! § The internal shaw discontinuity detects the cold light, and the sensor 4 can detect all the cold light radiation (ie, almost all wavelengths) from the reflector 3 '- The control device can estimate the intensity of the radiation beam or the radiation beam position accordingly. Alternatively, the sensor can detect the intensity of the cold light light for a plurality of specific wavelengths related to changes in the state of the electrons in the reflector material. Then, The control device can more accurately measure the intensity of the wheel beam or the intensity of the light beam portion from the probability of state changes in the atoms of the reflector and the intensity of the cold light radiation at each relevant wavelength. The intensity of a specific wavelength can also characterize the contaminants on the reflector. For example, it can determine the composition and / or thickness of the pollutant layer on the surface of the reflector because the characteristic electronic state charge of the contaminant is different from the characteristic electronic state charge of the reflector. Induction is also compatible with any surface on which the radiation beam is incident. In particular, it can be used in combination with an unpatterned radiation projection beam or a patterned radiation projection beam. In the former case, the sensor is preferably matched with a reflector close to the radiation source. In each reflection, the intensity of the radiation beam is reduced, so the amount of cold light radiation emitted from each surface is also reduced. Therefore, the sensor can be matched with a reflector, wherein the reflector is an illumination system (one point, or located directly below the beam of the illumination system. To be more precise, the sensor can be connected to the field of the illumination system and And / or mating mirror matching ports. These are used to increase the uniformity of the intensity of the projected beam over the entire cross-section. The mirror may need to be adjusted to obtain the required field intensity 87659 -17- 200419313 distribution. Then, The sensor can be used to determine the intensity distribution of the projected beam at the mirror or at the subsequent elements. Therefore, the required correction of the acupoint mirror can be determined. Further on the field and pupil mirrors The information is Jie Lin's patent application No. 0225 193 3.4, the content of which is incorporated by reference in this case. It should be understood that the sensor can also be matched with a reflector, where the reflector is located under the pole of the actual light beam It is used to monitor the possible loss of many reflections. Or, in another way, the sensor can cooperate with a reflector, wherein the reflector is located in the pattern forming member. Just below the beam. For example, when the pattern is opened; when the forming component is a programmable pattern forming component, you can use this method to confirm whether the intensity distribution of the pattern forming component is as expected and / or provide feedback to the programmable pattern. The component is formed to provide the required correction. The sensor can be used in particular with a reflector in a projection system. Since no suitable material is currently known to make refractive lenses compatible with EUV radiation, it is used EUV radiation as a projection lithographic device must rely on reflective optics. An example of this projection system is depicted in Figure 3. The reflector, M2, M ;, M * can be used to project the image of the pattern-forming member MA On the substrate W. Further information on a projection system using reflective optics is disclosed in European Patent £ 1, 2,09,508, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Use of EUV In the example of a radiation lithographic projection device, the reflector may be a distributed Bragg reflector, for example, composed of a plurality of alternating molybdenum layers and silicon layers. These distributed Bragg reflectors can be clad to maintain the bottom layer. Most of the cold light radiation can be emitted from the clad, so the material used to make the clad 87659 -18- 200419313 should be selected to make it cold. Radiation is maximized. Alternatively, the reflector or its specific area that can be used in the present invention may be coated with an additional fluorescent layer to enhance cold light radiation. The sensor 4 may only be adjacent to the reflector 3. However, this is not the norm. In the device in which the radiation beam 2 is EUV radiation, the beam path can be located in a vacuum chamber to reduce the loss of intensity. However, the cold light 5 will have a different wavelength, but it will therefore be less likely Suffered a loss of strength. Therefore, the 'inductor 4 can be positioned outside the vacuum chamber, and the cold light radiation 5 can penetrate a panel through which the cold light radiation can penetrate. The measurement of the location of the projected beam or the patterned beam (or overall beam) can be used to determine that the photoresist on the substrate has received the correct exposure. This can be achieved, for example, by adjusting the exposure time of the photoresist or by adjusting the radiation beam generated by the illumination system corresponding to the measured intensity value. Although specific embodiments of the invention have been described above, it should be understood that the invention can be implemented in other ways than those described above. The above description is not intended to limit the invention.
